Live Updates: Game Thread for No. 15 Boston College Men's Hockey vs New Hampshire

CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. — With just over a week to go until Boston College men’s hockey takes on Harvard in the first round of The Beanpot at TD Garden, the Eagles are set to compete against New Hampshire in a home-and-away series this weekend.

No. 15 BC (11-8-1, 7-5-0 Hockey East) is coming off two straight losses to No. 11 Providence last Friday and Saturday, but so are the Wildcats (11-10, 5-6), who suffered back-to-back losses to Northeastern.

Game No. 1 of the series is set for Friday at 7 p.m. ET at Conte Forum. Game No. 2 will be played on Saturday in Durham, N.H., at the same time.

The Eagles hold an all-time record of 80-65-16 against UNH and are 8-1-1 in their last 10 matchups.

Last season, BC and New Hampshire played twice — on Feb. 28 and March 1, 2025 — and the Eagles earned a 4-1 win in the first game before playing to a 1-1 tie in the second. The Eagles came out on top in the second-game shootout, however.

Heading into the series, BC sits in fourth place (tied with Northeastern) in the Hockey East standings while the Wildcats are tied for ninth place with UMass and UMass Lowell.

GOAL, Boston College - A Wildcat turnover in the middle of the neutral zone allowed James Hagens to pick up the puck on a two-on-one. Instead of passing, Hagens sent the puck right right through UNH goalie Kyle Chauvette's five-hole for his 11th goal of the season. Boston College 4, UNH 2 [17:30].

Second period:

End of P2: Boston College 3, UNH 2. Another rock-solid frame for the Eagles. James Hagens and Dean Letourneau have been flying around the ice and made the last penalty kill look more like a power play. The line combinations have gelled from top to bottom.

3:33 - Lukas Gustafsson is booked for hooking, sending the Wildcats to the power play. Two of the five goals in the contest have come on the man advantage.

GOAL, Boston College: Dean Letourneau feeds Jake Sondreal crashing to the net with the perfect assist for a tap-in goal to put the Eagles ahead, once again, by a goal. Boston College 3, UNH 2 [11:05].

GOAL, New Hampshire: Ty LeClerc knots the score up at two apiece with a ripper from the right circle after BC goaltender Louka Cloutier made a pair of saves with his chest. LeClerc had too much of an open lane and slotted the puck into to the upper-right corner. Boston College 2, UNH 2 [15:24].

First period:

End of P1: Boston College 2, UNH 1.

End of P1: Boston College 2, UNH 1. The Eagles still have 17 seconds remaining of a power play when the second frame starts.

BC has only lost one game this season — on Oct. 24 to Denver, 7-3 — in which it scored twice in the first period.

GOAL, Boston College: Dean Letourneau notches his 12th goal of the season with a snipe from the slot to put the Eagles back ahead by one. James Hagens notched the assist with a pass off the boards. The goal was also scored on the power play after Cam MacDonald was booked for slashing. Boston College 2, UNH 1 [14:06].

GOAL, New Hampshire: The Wildcats rebound immediately with a power-play goal after Will Skahan was sent to the box for interference. Nick Ring tallied it for New Hampshire. Boston College 1, UNH 1 [17:04].

GOAL, Boston College: Andre Gasseau tipped in Aram Minnetian's shot from the point to put the Eagles ahead early. BC was controlling the puck deep in Wildcat territory for the entire first two minutes of the game. Boston College 1, UNH 0 [18:21].
